Eh?
That should not be a solution. That's only about IPv4 endpoints being
addressable through IPv6 addresses (::127.0.0.1, the 0 setting means you
reenabled them, this is RFC compliant, but security-wise an issue).
Why do I get the feeling a lot of OSS projects have little clue how to
properly write applications that use IPv4/IPv6.
Does this also work for you:
JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack="true"
